Course Description	通過大一新手村的訓練，我們即將開始物質世界的奇幻旅程。課程中傳授的熱力學奧義，將使你洞悉能量流動的秘密，掌握操控反應與化學平衡的關鍵技能。不過，請先確認自己擁有合格的基礎工具：普通化學知識是你的新手裝備，助你披荊斬棘向前邁進。微積分是我們的輔助魔法，直攻看似抽象的熱力學謎題。如果你已迫不及待想踏上刺激的冒險之旅，快加入物理化學(上)的行列，一起穿過時光之門前往十八世紀末的歐洲大陸啟程探索。 Welcome, freshmen, to the world of matter! Having completed your first year of training, you're ready to begin a fantastical journey into the physical world. This course will initiate you into the secrets of thermodynamics, unlocking the mysteries of energy flow and giving you mastery over chemical reactions and equilibrium. Before you set out, make sure you're properly equipped: General Chemistry — your starter gear, essential for cutting through what lies ahead Calculus — your support spell, indispensable for confronting the seemingly abstract puzzles of thermodynamics If you're ready for adventure, join Physical Chemistry I and step through the time portal to late-18th-century Europe, where our exploration begins.
